Congrats! What helped you study the material on Pharm and Med surg?
What are the common questions to think of when studying med surg 1? Are their a pattern of questions asked such as potential complications, early/late, intervention? I'm trying to create a chart format in bullets to help chunk the material . thank you!! :) For instance for pharm we just have to only know the action and uses so I grouped the drugs with classification and also came up with some questions like what do I know about these meds, do I know the most common diseases treated by the listed meds, do I know why ___is usd. do I know ___classifications. can I place each med under the body system that it commonly affects. ...application problems.

Its been a hard road with med surf and pharm I look at suffixes of drugs and labs that go with them and the side effects besides nausea and vomiting eg: headache, vision ect. I use different colored pens for med surge what is it drug to give assessments data and interventions for it and what are the different labs and diagnostics eg: catheter echo ect. And what do these diagnostics look for Bp, pressure of the heart, O2 sats good luck
I'm so tired of studying have to keep pushing though
